49ers Face Weather Woes vs. Browns
30 Nov
Summary
- Game day forecasts predict rain, snow, and high winds.
- Temperatures expected to be between 30 and 39 degrees.
- Adverse weather may favor a strong running game over passing.
This Sunday's Week 13 matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and Cleveland Browns at Huntington Bank Field is anticipated to feature challenging late-season weather. AccuWeather predicts temperatures ranging from 30 to 39 degrees Fahrenheit, with The Weather Channel warning of rain transitioning to snow and a high chance of precipitation. Strong wind gusts up to 35 mph are also expected, creating conditions that could heavily influence the game's offensive dynamics.
The adverse weather is likely to reduce passing attempts and disrupt offensive rhythm for both teams. This sets the stage for a game that may be decided by which team can establish a more effective running game. For the 49ers, quarterback Brock Purdy will need to navigate these tough conditions and a strong Browns defense, especially after throwing three interceptions in their previous win.
Cleveland's rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders enters the game with a 1-0 record as a starter after leading the Browns to a victory last week. He will aim to build on this success against a formidable 49ers team. The game is scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on CBS.
